Contact

Are you looking to get in touch with me or “pick my brain”? I get contacted by a LOT of different people for a LOT of different things. And I really want to help, I swear. But unfortunately I don’t have time to meet every single person who sends me an email for coffee, lunch or whatever.

So forgive me if I send this to you but if you contact me using the tips below I’ll be able to follow-up with you faster 🙂

Do you need to get in touch with me ?

2) If you have a more personal request, you may send me an email. Please send me no more than 3 sentences on what you need (if you send me a longer email, I may take longer to reply or ask you to scale it down). I do this to save time and also to better understand your question.

Please note that as of the beginning of October 2015 I no longer work at Microsoft and therefore do not receive emails you send to that address.

Please contact me using email, NOT Facebook, for professional requests – it helps me stay organized, I can forward to people if I need to and I will respond to you faster. DO NOT RANDOMLY CALL ME. I do not answer unscheduled phone calls or calls from numbers I do not recognize.

3) Meetings. I try not to do too many meetings. So if you just have a short question to ask and you prefer not to do it by email, try to meet up with me at an event instead of asking for a meeting. *This includes people who are seeking job advice* You can see all the events I plan to attend here.

Roxanne,
I do not speak French, although Guy de Maupassant is my all-time favorite writer (I’m sure you’re all over him, but Le Horla is amazing if you’ve never partaken). I am a PR flak for MobilePayUSA, an NFC-alternative mobile payment company. Just wanted to tell you that your site is swank and keep up the great work!

Cass Phillips referred me to you as I am interested in doing a Failcon event in Wisconsin (difficult proposition but I plan to push idea). I looked at the agenda in Paris (BTW, I am a US Delegate to the OECD Sustainable Manufacturing and Eco-Innovation Committee so I get to Paris occasionally and love it). I was wondering if you would be available to discuss challenges and opportunities of putting this conference together and if turnout met your expectations.

My name is Mark Morrow. I am extremely interested in both France, (I lived there for a bit) and tech (especially all of the cool and interesting new services and wacky start-up ideas that somehow seem to fill a deep void in my life that I never knew was missing.) I am very keen to find a job which incorporates both my love of new, interesting tech ideas and living pretty much anywhere in metropolitan France. I took a look at the “jobs” tab which you have above, however these positions seems to be mostly geared toward programmers/developers, a group to which I sadly do not belong. I was wondering if you happened to know or heard of any positions in France for someone like myself, who finds all of these new ideas and device absolutely enchanting, but is painfully aware he does not possess the technical skill required to create any. I appreciate any advice/reply you may be able to give, and beg you to forgive me if I am being to forward.

I am writing to you as the founder and chairwoman of Iranian Women’s Association (a platform for professional Iranian women). You follow us on Twitter but we are not very active on it.
IWA is the first and only UK based international women’s association for Iranian women. We are a non-profit, non-political and non-religious membership organization. We are also in a member of the “Federation of International Women in London”.

Our main aim is to bring together highly accomplished Iranian women with young Iranians with the goal of helping these young women. This will be done mainly through a series of events called ‘Passing the Torch of Success’ and mentorship programmes, you can read more about our aims and what we do on our website: http://www.iranianwomenassociation.com
Our ambition is to have a diverse range of speakers from different sectors and with different stories. As an Iranian woman who is the Founder of such a successful company, I think your story can be quite compelling for young Iranian women who have doubts about starting businesses.
Our next event is on 11th March which we sent you a note about on Instgram. iranianwomenassociation.com/events

We would love to have your support and possibly have you as a speaker in another event. Please let me know if you have any questions via info@iranianwomenassociation.com
